Oxygen sensors monitor the amount of oxygen in the exhaust, and the engine control unit (ECU) uses this information to adjust the air-to-fuel ratio in real-time. This is called closed loop control — it was not feasible to achieve this control with carburetors. There was a brief period ...
However, we have to know when to set the output on or off, and for this we have set-up and tuning parameters. The parameters that adjust the embedded code to your specific vehicle are configured using a laptop and tuning software, such as MegaTune. These are Windows9x/Me/XP ...
A dry system introduces nitrous oxide alone into the intake tract, relying on the engine's existing fuel system to provide the additional fuel needed. These systems are often used in vehicles with sophisticated fuel injection systems that can adjust fuel delivery in response to the nitrous. Compon...
Plymouth and Dodge vehicles. As with all carburetors, the BBD requires periodic adjustments. The idle mixture screws determine the amount of air and fuel distributed by the carburetor. Within the carburetor are two floats designed to ensure that the...
An over rich carburetor adjustment is when the proportion of fuel in the air-fuel mixture is too high. Check to make sure the fuel tank is at least half full. If the carburetor is adjusted with inadequate fuel, the carburetor may be too rich when fuel is added later. With a too rich...
carburetor. The position of the screw determines how much air is pulled into the pilot system, drawing more fuel in the process. While Yamaha's service manual does reference the pilot screw, it does not mention its location or how to adjust the screw to accommodate changing riding conditions....
Carburetor: The carburetor has one job: to mix the correct proportion of gasoline and air for the engine. Too much gasoline in the mixture makes it rich; too little gas makes it lean. Throttle: The throttle controls the amount of fuel-air mixture that enters the engine from the carburetor...
If the oxygen content is low or the air is a “rich mixture”, the voltage generated by the sensor will be around 0.9V. Based on this potential, the ECU will adjust the opening time of the fuel injectors appropriately so that the intake air mixture has an air/gasoline ratio close to ...
The inlet valve allows fuel and air to enter the cylinder from a carburetor or electronic fuel-injector; the outlet valve lets the exhaust gases escape. At the top of the cylinder, there is also a sparking plug (or spark plug), an electrically controlled device that makes a spark to set...
The only thing that it comes down to is fuel. Turbocharging with a carburetor is tricky, but doable. You only need to make about 5 PSI to create 66hp matt167, Oct 25, 2017 #3 Trey 4x4 likes this. KCCats Active Member Again that's adding HP and usually that is only at ...
